Independent Study proposals are due October 26, 2012—no exceptions or extensions. Students may do only one full Independent Study or two half Independent Studies during their four years at Bennington. Not all students are eligible to do an Independent Study, and to be considered:
- You must have completed at least four terms, be in good academic standing, and receive the approval of faculty in your area of concentration.
- You must have an academic sponsor, who may or may not be a faculty member (non-faculty members must submit a CV and be approved).
- Your proposal must be signed by your advisor, the sponsor of your Independent Study, and a member of the faculty in the discipline of your proposed study if not already represented.
- Contact the FWT and Career Development Office to request an Independent Study registration form.
